    How to change source of linked tables after compiling Frond End

    Suppose I have a front end and backend (tables) database which I want to deploye. Currently Access tries to find the backend in the same absolute location (rather than relative position). This causes a problem as drive letters change and sometimes I would want it in a specific location on my computer and another place on deployed computer. Is there anyway to change source of linked tables after compiling to ACCDE

    or if doing it manually, use the linked table manager (right click a table)

    manually is fine. but how will that work. Access will not allow table or query view once compiled
